"So what are we going to do now?" Clara's panicked voice trailed. May had just broken the news of their burnt house to her. "We will move into our villa at hilltop for now then I will figure out what next to do." "Nonsense May! Arrant nonsense! You think a roof over my head is my problem? Have you forgotten my aunt left me a mansion before she died?" May pushed out a breath. "Good riddance. At least you have options." Clara made a grunt, her eyes flaring. "You miss the whole point, May. I have assets in that house. My golds, diamonds… all my rare gems. All my luxurious limited collections. How could you tell me they are all gone? No! It's not possible." May pressed her eyes shut. She always knew telling her mom the news would be hard but she never imagined it to be this painful and devastating. "Mom, you should be grateful. Grateful that we made it. Grateful that you didn't die that night and your body burnt in that fire. Grateful that help came when it did and you were able

"What do I do next boss?" Peter asked Bench. "Send him an invitation. I mean Declan King. I want to meet with him as soon as possible." Bench stated with enthusiasm. Peter bowed and walked away. Declan received an email shortly, that a certain Bench Cowper invited him for lunch . "This is interesting." He said, reading the mail from the top of his dark shades. He had heard a whiff about Bench and his multi million dollars real estate company but had never really paid attention. He didn't need to bother his mind with the curiosity of what the invitation was about for he already had a clue. For all Declan knew, Bench was very much acquainted with the Livingstons. "Let's go get the party started" Declan downed the rest of the whiskey and got up. Straightening his blazers, he picked up his key and walked off. "Please come in." Bench stood to welcome Declan. They were at the lounge of one Bench's hotel in the city." "Uhm... Bench Cowper?" "Oh yes. It's a pleasure to final

Mr Bench looked out through the window on his drive home. A small smile plastered on his face. Getting Declan on his side was easier than he expected. The power of money. Who in his sane mind would reject such a gift. Even the wealthiest man would fall for one gold toad, then how much more a worthless son-in-law?Bench pushed out a breath in relief. With Declan on his side now, he could push through with his plans and make multiple returns from his investments. He couldn't wait. ***"The product of the B11 and B12 medicine is set to resume and a new launching date will be announced soon. This was made known by the new chairman of the Board, Robinson Clark today at the company's board meeting held at...."Mandy switched off the television and flung the remote on the couch. "That was sooner than I expected." Declan remarked, seated on an armchair in Mandy Asher's office. "I saw it coming. Many people invested in that project and they wouldn't sit and watch their money wash down the

"Two glasses of champagne please."Mandy said to the waiter by her side. She turned to Declan and smiled at him sweetly. They just finished dinner at one of the 5 star restaurants in the city. "For a moment I was scared you stood me up.""Sorry I was late. I had an unexpected delay with my agent.""What agent?" Mandy asked, using a hand to support her head. "It's a personal matter.""Oh. My bad." Mandy forced a smile. Luckily, the waiter came at that moment to save her from the awkwardness that was beginning to creep up her skin. "Thank you" she took the glass and gulped down a little bit more than necessary.""Ahhh. Well then, any move so far about the snakes or is that alsi a personal matter?" Mandy asked with a glimpse of Sarcasm. "Our assumptions so far are correct. But Bench and Jordan invested a huge chunk in the production. They were the highest investors. Over a billion dollars each.""Whoa! That's huge.""Yeah. I got a researcher to help me look into the B11 and B12 med

"The organized crime inspection commission has hinted at a possible shutdown of Livingston's pharmaceutical to halt the production of the B11 and B12 medicine. This report came as a result of a tipoff the organization received regarding the deadly side effect of the medicines. An investigation will be carried out on this effect and updates will be brought to the general public soon. However, the competence of heavy investors in this project are however now questionable in the eyes of the public. Companies like the Smith's enterprise, Bench Cowper's real estate enterprise and so many—""Nonsense!" Bench growled, throwing the remote across the room after switching off the television. "Argh!" He snarled, pushing everything on his table down with great force. He shook in anger, his eyes red in fury. "Who did this! How dare they?! I swear I will kill them all!" He growled, his heart moving heavily in his chest. "What should I do boss?" Peter asked at the corner with his bow low like

The locks of the prison bars opened and James stepped out. "You came. Was wondering what kept you." He said, staring at Mr Bench. "You look quite well" Bench commended scanning James with his eyes. "They know to be very respectful, I can't complain." James stepped up and sat across Bench on a table. "Speaking about respect, how hard can it be to treat others with that? I used to know you as a reputable business man, what changed." Bench said with seriousness."I don't know what you mean, Bench, but it's nice to see you again.""I wish I could say the same. Ah— let me rephrase that, I wish what brought me here permits me to feel the same way."James's eyes darted to the sides menacingly, then back at Bench. He already knew there was a problem "Cut the chase Bench, what's the problem?""You are the problem James. You can't fall and take everyone down with you.""What do you mean!" James said with a low grit." I'm saying you should stop toying with us. I won't ask nicely next time.

"I warned you." Jordan Smith's cold voice echoed from the speaker. "I will take care of it, Jordan." Bench replied coolly. "And how will you do that? That man is dangerous.""He is the last thing on my mind now, I'm interested in pushing forward the project first." Bench lied adjusting on his chair. "I had everything wiped off from the Internet. The media is on our side now and he is being watched so be rest assured he won't make any move for now." Bench assured. "Hmm... I will take your word for it then. Good bye." The call dropped and Bench tightened his grip on the phone. His phone buzzed with a message and he brought the phone to his face. Mandy. He sighed, switching the phone off aggressively and throwing it across the room. His head was full and it was frustrating that everyone seemed to be on his tail now. "Declan King" He chuckled without humor. "I will ruin you!"It was the evening of the next day and the Williams household were setting up for dinner with Mandy Asher

Declan marched further into the Smith's residence, shooting everything in his way down. Even domestic staff were not spared. He badged into Jordan's office and Jordan froze. His eyes flashed in shock at Declan's appearance. Declan looked like he just stepped out of a blood bath with the amount of blood stains on his body. Without saying a word, Declan lifted the AK-47 he held and conked it, a finger placed on the trigger. "Wait! Don't shoot!" Jordan seethed. He swallowed nervously as he eyed the gun Declan held. "That was supposed to be a warning. I—the stupid boy I sent crossed the line." Jordan admitted, snapping his eyes shut and putting his two arms up in the air. His throat moved down and he swallowed the lump in it. He sat still, not moving and barely breathing, waiting for Declan to do something else aside kill him. "In as much as I would love to blow your brains out right now, I need you alive—" Jordan's eyes flicked open at Declan's words. He made to get up bu

Declan walked down the stairs cleaning his eyes as he descended with a clear smile on his face. Two days had passed since he had a blood fest against Mandy and the men that she had brought. He walked into the dining room and grabbed the coffee pot for the machine and poured himself a cup. “Hmm, a cup of coffee first thing in the morning… who are you and what have you done with my Kazuka?” Declan turned to see his mother seated at the table with a plate of toasts and fruits before her. “Good morning mother.” Declan said, walking up to her. He kissed her on the cheek before taking a seat beside her. “Someone woke up on the right side of the bed today.” Elizabeth said with a smile. “What's making my boy all cheery in the morning?” “Nothing… I was just thinking of my plans for the day.” Declan replied, taking a sip from the cup in his hand. “Must be a very interesting day you have planned out for yourself if this is the kind of expression you have first thing in the morning.” “I

May watched as Mandy glared at Declan with eyes full of hate while he smirked at her while looking at the men that had arrived with her. “Please tell me that you have more people coming.” Declan said with a smile. “Even the people you sent to kidnap May were more than this.” As if in response, a van pulled up behind Declan's car and over a dozen men climbed out of it with clubs and steel pipes in their grasp, with some of them holding daggers and short knives. “Now this is looking promising.” Declan said, licking his lips in anticipation. May climbed out of the car walking towards Declan with her hands slightly raised. “Mandy, you don't need to do this.” She said softly. “You can just tell your men to leave and we can all just forget that something like this ever happened.” “Shut up!” Mandy snapped, turning her glare to May who shuddered under the killing intent that Mandy poured out. “This is all his fault. My grandfather is dead and it's all his fault.” She yelled in pain

In the evening of that day, Declan had gone to pick up May for their date. “You know you don't need to do this Declan, I also have a car.” May said walking up to a black car parked a few feet away from her with Declan leaning against it. “That would be absurd. Imagine asking someone out on a date and then deciding to let the person drive there.”Declan said, shaking his head, opening the door for her to get in. “That's no different than asking the person to meet up with you for a business lunch.” “It's the thought behind it that matters Declan… God, are all the men of the King family stubborn?” May said with a sigh while Declan chuckled in response driving away. “so, what about Mandy? Any news about her after your meeting today?” “Well, I got reports that she was approached by a lady and was taken to a station for questioning. The company was given a trial in a few days and from there everything will play out.” Declan shrugged. “Not if you cause the company to fold.” May said

Mandy kept her gaze fixed on the door leading to the room where Declan was having his interview with Celeste. The door opened and Declan walked out with a calm look on his face. Mandy stood and walked towards him. “Declan!” She yelled before grabbing his collar to the surprise of everyone present. “Mandy Asher… quite a surprise for me to see you here… don't you think?” Declan said with a soft smile. “You are happy, aren't you? You have finally ruined my family and gotten your revenge.” She said, gripping his shirt tighter. “Your questions are like asking a poor man who just win the lottery if he is happy winning a huge amount of money.” Declan said gripping her hand. “Of course I am happy.” He wrenches her hands off his clothes and straightened his shirt. “Miss Asher I would love it if you don't come onto me like that again.” Declan added and made to walk away but she blocked him. “Why don't you finish what you started? You have already killed my grandfather; adding me to th

May's eyes widened in shock. She looked at the man who looked nothing above his early thirties before shaking her head in disbelief. “So you are old? A hundred?” She asked, still in doubt. “Can we not put a number on it? Surprised that I am around your grandpa’s age?” Declan asked with an amused look. “Shocked? Declan, you don't look a day above thirty five.” She replied before reaching for her glass of wine. “Well, I suppose it was one of the reasons families decided to go against us. Certain families after discovering our secret became afraid. I suppose that was the reason the Deckers family decided to launch Project K-11. They wanted to make soldiers that could match our prowess which as you should know ended in failure while claiming the lives of many people. Four families… all jealous of the power we had decided to band against us and send us out of the city that we had built as a home for ourselves. They had even nailed the blame of Project K-11 on our family and after som

Declan reached for his ringing phone and his cold face softened a little. He raised the phone to his ear and answered the call. “Hello May.” “Hey Declan, em… sorry to disturb you but I just saw the news and decided to call you. I never had the chance to tell you thank you for everything.” Declan smiled at the nervousness in May's voice. “No problem. It was my pleasure.” He replied. Any other thing?” “Are you busy?” She asked. “Right now? No, not at all. Is there any problem?” “Not right now. Will you be free tonight? I was thinking that maybe we should meet up and discuss things over.” May said, her voice beginning to shake slightly. “I can make time. What do you want to talk about?” He asked with a smirk. “Nothing ser-. I will let you know when we meet.” May said. “Alright then… text me the time and I will come pick you up.” Declan said, his face harboring a grin that threatened to tear past his face. “Alright. It's a date then.” Mandy said and ended the call. Declan s

‘Reporting the death of the patriarch of the Asher family, Asher Keaton was reported dead having passed away yesterday in the early hours of the afternoon.’ Declan looked at the news on the television before turning to the phone in his hand. He had over a dozen missed calls from Mandy which he suspected was for him to chew him out. He turned to the maid and pointed at the wine shelf before turning back to the news. ‘News reaching the media now is pointing towards the Asher industries about another of their multiple evil deeds against the city. A construction scandal done towards a project of building a city facility which was supposedly done with fake materials.’ ‘Experts are being brought in to investigate the nature of the materials used to build the facility.’ ‘The Asher industries are also said to be on the very brink of bankruptcy with their stocks fallen before the twenty-five percent mark.’ “This is actually a very good cause for one to celebrate.” Declan said, reaching fo

Mandy looked around the office with a heavy sigh before going back to the work she was handling on her laptop. It has been a week since May had announced her innocence and sued the Asher to court. The trial had gone against them, making them pay over a hundred and fifty million in compensation at the demand of the Williams. After that, bits and bits of the company's confidential data happened to find their way into the social media giving them a black name among the public. The company stocks had fallen by over forty seven percent and it wasn't rising back, leaving the company a few steps away from folding due to bankruptcy. Her attention is drawn away when the door of her office opens letting Asher in. “Another one has been released.” He said with a bitter smile on his face. “This is getting worse than I expected.” Mandy groaned and slumped back against her chair in despair. She blamed everything on Declan… it was all his fault all for a pointless revenge due to an old injury

Mandy sipped from the glass in her hand, her gaze fixed on the television before her. On the table before her, some files laid open with a pad at the edge of the table. ‘An announcement has been scheduled this afternoon for the public residents of the city. The host of the announcement is non either than May Williams -.’ “Pfft!.” Mandy spilled out a mouthful of wine onto the files in front of her. She gazed at the screen in shock… May was alive meaning that Declan must have either saved her or the men weren't able to get to her in time. Either way, her plan had been flunked. She exhaled and gripped the glass in her hand till it shattered spilling over the floor. She stood up from the couch and walked out. At the other side of the city, May looked around and exhaled softly. She was in the Williams industries and was surrounded by different reporters that she had invited for an announcement. She turned towards a corner of the hall where a figure dressed in black with its face
